Hello, and welcome to the Abroad in Japan podcast, probably the best way of learning about life in Japan without actually being in Japan. I'm your host, Chris Broad, and we're joined, as always, by England's top Japan enthusiast, Mr. Pete Donaldson. Pete, how the devil are you doing? What's going on?

[chuckles] Um, so, uh, yeah, I'll apo- I'll apologize for, uh, for the slight aberration on the screen behind me, but- It looks great. -I think it's important to... I, I love, I love CRTs. I love, um, meeting men in car parks around the, uh, South End area buying, um, so I can buy more CRTs. [chuckles] [chuckles] I absolutely love them. They're absolutely great.

I mean, my most-- one of my most recent videos was sort of about the physical world becoming redundant in many respects.
